Israeli occupation forces carried out multiple raids, arrests, and farmer detentions across the occupied West Bank on Friday, following a resistance operation in Beit She’an.

Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Qabatiya, south of Jenin, on Friday evening, deploying several military vehicles accompanied by a bulldozer, Quds News Network reported.

Infantry units also spread throughout the town, while snipers were positioned on the rooftops of multiple buildings.

Local sources cited by QNN said the occupation forces raided the home of the father of the perpetrator of the Beisan operation, arrested him, and carried out extensive searches inside the house.

In a separate incident, Israeli occupation forces detained a number of Palestinian farmers in Khirbet Yarza, east of Tubas, while they were attempting to cultivate their land on Friday evening. The farmers were held for several hours, during which settlers reportedly attacked them and prevented them from accessing their fields.

Meanwhile, resistance fighters threw a homemade explosive device at occupation forces during a raid on the village of Burqa, northwest of Nablus.

Earlier on Friday, two illegal Israeli Jewish settlers were killed, and others were injured in a car-ramming and stabbing operation carried out by a young Palestinian man in the cities of Beit She’an and Afula, in northern occupied Palestine.

Israeli media reported that the operation began in Beit She’an, where the perpetrator rammed a settler with his vehicle before exiting and stabbing another, resulting in two deaths and additional injuries.

The perpetrator reportedly continued moving between several locations, carrying out further car-ramming incidents that left a number of settlers wounded, some in serious condition.

Following the operation, Israeli occupation forces deployed large military reinforcements, set up multiple checkpoints, and tightened security measures across Beit She’an, Afula, and surrounding areas, while launching extensive search and pursuit operations.
